The Alchemy of woman

The Alchemy of woman as described in the Hindu Mythology :

"He took the lightness of the leaf and the glance of the fawn,
The gaiety of the sun rays and the tears of the mist;
The inconstancy of the wind and the timidity of the hare,
The vanity of the peacock and the softness of the dawn on the throat of the swallow.
He added the harsness of the diamond, and the sweet flavour of honey,
The cruelty of the tiger, the warmth of the fire, and the chill of the snow.
He added the chatter of the jay and cooing of the turtle-dove.
He melted all these and formed a woman.

Then He made a present of her to man."
